2 3 COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Mixture of aromatic substances. 4 FIRST-AID MEASURES 4.1 Description of first aid measures General information: As in all cases of potential poisoning, Obtain medical advice immediately. In case of eye contact: In the event of contact with the eyes, irrigate with water for at least 15 minutes; obtain medical advice if irritation persists. In case of inhalation: In the event of exposure to vapors, immediately remove from the area to a fresh air environment. In case of skin contact: Remove contaminated clothes. Wash skin with large volumes of water. If irritation persists, or any sign of tissue damage is apparent, obtain medical advice immediately. In case of ingestion: In the event of accidental ingestion, rinse mouth with water. Give up to one tumbler (half pint) of milk or water. Obtain medical advise immediately. Do not induce vomiting, obtain medical advise immediately. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed 4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed 5 FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES 5.1 Extinguishing media In the event of fire, adequate extinguishers should be used. Avoid inhalation of smoke and fumes. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Use standard procedures and preferred extinguishing media as stated below. Extinguishing media: Water, foam, carbon dioxide or dry chemical. 5.2 Special hazard arising from the substance or mixture Product is a combustible powder. Like all combustible powders, it may form explosive mixtures if suspended in air. 5.3 Advice for fire-fighters No specific advice. 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures For non-emergency personnel: Adequate protective gloves should be worn when handling spillages. No smoking. Avoid naked flames or other potential sources of ignition (eg. electrical equipment). Page 2 / 7

3 Avoid skin contamination and inhalation of dust. Individual washing routines should be followed after any potential contact. Ensure adequate ventilation in working areas following accidental releases. For emergency personnel: Apply the same recommendations as section Environmental precautions Do not discharge directly into drains, air, into soil or into the aquatic environment. 6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up For containment: Small Spills can be swept up and disposed of properly. Do not allow powder to accumulate on horizontal surfaces, as an explosive dust/air mixture could occur if suddenly dispersed into the air. For cleaning-up: Spillages should be disposed of in accordance with Governmental Regulations. 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE 7.1 Precautions for safe handling Keep strict control of dust accumulation to a minimum. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wear adequate protective gloves protection and eye/face protection. No smoking. Avoid any source of ignition. Use flameproof electrical equipment and spark-reduced tools. Ensure that all equipments are properly bonding and earthing. Avoid exposing to high temperature during processing. Do not ingest or apply to the skin as such. Good personal washing routines should be followed. Maintain adequate local and general ventilation where product is handled Protective measures Keep strict control of dust accumulation to a minimum.maintain adequate local and general ventilation where product is handled.avoid any sources of ignition Advice on general occupational hygiene Good personal washing routines should be followed. 7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities It is good general practice to store in closed, preferably full, containers away from heat sources, and protected from extremes of temperature. Do not re-use the empty container. Respect generals rules for compatibility storage. 7.3 Specific end use(s) at this time. 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION 8.1 Control parameters - Page 3 / 7

4 8.2 Exposure controls Avoid exposing to high temperature during processing. Maintain adequate local and general ventilation where product is handled Appropriate engineering controls Maintain adequate local and general ventilation where product is handled and dispensed Environmental exposure controls at this time. Minimize release to the environment. 8.3 Personal protection Respiratory protection: Breathing of the vapors or dust particles may be hazardous. In the absence of appropriate engineering controls such as spot ventilation, ventilated enclosures, etc., workers should avail themselves of the appropriate NIOSH approved respiratory protection. OSHA has established limits for Respirable dust (PEL of 5 mg/m3) TWA and Total dust (PEL of 15 mg/m3)twa. It is recommended that when using powders that air monitoring of the workplace be conducted to ensure that these levels are not exceeded. Hand protection: Adequate Protective Gloves should be worn. Eye protection: Adequate safety glasses should be used. Skin protection: Wear protective clothing, overall if necessary to limit the odour contamination of personal clothing. Individual washing routines should be followed after any potential contact. 9 PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES 9.1 Information on basic physical and chemical properties Appearance : Colour : Odour : POWDER BROWN Characteristic strong odour according to the commercial description of the substance. ph : Melting point/range ( C) : Initial boiling point/range ( C) : Flash point (closed cup) : Evaporation rate : Flammability (solid/gas) : Upper/lower flammability or explosive limits : Vapor pressure (At 20 C in mm Hg ) : Calculated vapor pressure (At 20 C in mm Hg): Vapour density : Relative density (d 20/20) : Water solubility (20 C) : Partition coef.

Please refer to section Default Safety Data for Spray Dryer Dust Compounds Using our experience in Powder operations and internal "Safety Dust Data Base Results", we established the following "Default Parameters Profile". Theses Default Parameters should never be used for production, storage, transportation or any other industrial purpose. On all cases, if specific data are needed, the physical measurement is the best way to get data of our compounds. Type - Particle size distribution - Moisture content - Minimun explosible concentration - Minimun ignition energy of cloud (MIE) - Minimun ignition energy in layer (MIE) - Cloud ignition temperature [1] - Layer ignition temperature (5 mm layer according to the applicable norm) [2] - KST - Pmax (abs) - St - Resistivity Value > 10 < 8 > 15 > 1 > 1 > 100 MELT < 400 < 11 3 > 1.E10 Units microns % g/m3 mj mj C C bars.m/s Bars - Ohm.m [1] The minimum ignition temperature of a dust cloud is the lowest temperature at which a surface in contact with an explosive mixture of combustible dust and air can ignited the mixture. The temperature for this powder is not below 120 C and we have to heat up to around C or more for possible gases decomposition ignition. [2] The smoldering /glow temperature can only be determined for substances that do not decompose, melt or evaporate before smoldering. In this case the MSDS mentioned MELT.This powder melt around C already before burning. 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY 10.1 Reactivity No reaction known with water Chemical stability Presents no significant reactivity hazard.

In view of the difficulty of using current standard toxicological evaluation techniques to predict potential hazards to susceptible individuals or arising from unforeseeable potentiation, this preparation should be considered and handled as if it displayed health hazards and treated in consequence with all possible precaution. 12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION This preparation has not been subjected to ecotoxicological testing as an entity. In view of the difficulty of using current standard ecotoxicological evaluation techniques to predict the impact of particular modes of release on vulnerable or localised parts of the ecosystem, this preparation should be considered and handled as if it displayed potential environmental hazards, and treated in consequence with all possible precaution. 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS Minimize release to the environment. 14 TRANSPORT INFORMATION In case of accidental spillage or fire during transport, refer to instructions given under points 5, 6, 7 and 8 above UNO Packing Group: 14.2 Land transport (ADR/RID) Packing group: 14.3 Sea transport (IMDG-Code) Page 6 / 7
